I'm ok with this as long as he wears a generic NHL jersey

🤔

You know, I'll take it.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Laine's face would scare away people

 

[Marvie_3]

Here's some concept art for how they're going to re-design Key Arena

http://www.king5.com/news/local/are...ted-seattle-keyarena-renovation/446404255?C=N

$500M in renovations? You could build a brand fucking new arena for less than that.

I dont get why theyre so attached to that ugly ass building.

 

[Pikma]

I'll let them build an ice rink in my backyard for $250,000,000

 

[Chris R]

Key arena is a fucking dump.

SoDo arena or bust

 

[PillarEN]

That's it? Man... they should really put Price on the cover for NHL18

I can't believe we haven't had a Cover athlete ever

Look for the Czech versions of NHL. Martin Rucinsky was on the cover in the early 00s or so .

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Cities: Skylines is so good after the Mass Transit update. City building ya'll. Weird how my "Boulder" district keeps getting hit by natural disaster after natural disaster.. weird how there are no hospitals, fire stations or funeral homes there...

Weird how the center of the district is just a garbage dump..?

I wonder if Saku Koivu ever had a cover for Finland

 

[Pikma]

I wonder if Matthews will be on the mexican cover

 

[PillarEN]

I wonder if Zuccarello has an exclusive contract with EA in Norway for the next 10 years.

 

[Pikma]

I wonder if this season will ever end, I want the fucking draft here already

Hey relax Marvie

 

[calder]

I was worried the buildup to the Comey testimony was too much and we'd be left with some anticlimactic non-committal responses but so far nope, pure fucking fire.

This Comey public hearing is lit

 

[Cake Boss]

I vote for Comey as cover athlete on NHL 18.

[Line_HTX]

Lol, Flames doing damage control.

 

[Socreges]

Fuck me it started already?? 😱

Gotta go catch up

 

[Unhandled Exception]

This Comey testimony has been very interesting. I won't get into why too much here, but I highly recommend people set aside the time to listen and draw their own conclusions.

 

[Pikma]

Something that's really sad is that I can tell who's Republican and who's Democrat just by their openings and their first few questions.

Even more so Republicans since they are basically acting as Trump's lawyers

Like hell you will. Thats where I play croquet and pickleball.

Hey relax Marvie

Sorry sir. 😭

 

[Pikma]

I can't believe Republicans keep bringing up Clinton's emails, and on a completely unrelated investigation.

What the fuck is wrong with these people

However, he is not our spokesperson regarding a new events centre for our city. We remain committed to our dialogue with the City and very optimistic we will get to a positive conclusion.

[ZeroGravity]

But what about Nunavut's favorite team?

 

[yyzjohn]

The 18% "none" vote is actually Leafs fans in the closet so we have 45% across the country.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

But what about Nunavut's favorite team?

Didn't answer, when polled they said "We'll have Nunavut"

 

[calder]

The important take away is that we all need to appreciate and respect Quebec for saying fuck no to Leaf fandom.

 

[Smiley90]

German

And Rumantsch / Romansh

 

[calder]

German

And Rumantsch / Romansh

German? Nailed it.


Yeah I googled it immediately after posting, was driving me nuts. That's some interesting shit on the wiki page for it.

Romansh originates from the spoken Latin brought to the region by Roman soldiers, merchants, and officials following the conquest of the modern-day Grisons area by the Romans in 15 BC. Before that, the inhabitants spoke Celtic and Raetic languages, with Raetic apparently being spoken mainly in the Lower Engadine valley.

The coolest thing to me, perhaps due to living in the prairies, is how the language and dialects of the region were so influenced by geography. Being able to categorize dialects by the valleys where they were spoken and track how trade routes opened and closed over time is pretty neat.

 

[Buba Big Guns]

There's a fuck load of Habs fans in Toronto and Ottawa

Swiss dialects are very diverse - there's a website that asks you how you pronounce ~20 different words and it can narrow down where you're from/where you live to like 5-6 towns. :lol

Friedman on edmonton radio 630 characterized the chances montreal will trade Galchenyuk as "likely"
